Keep getting missed calls from this number day and night. When I pick up the line gets cut. When I call back, its a message saying this number is no longer in service. Its scary but a bit reassuring that I'm not the only one.

Continue to get almost daily calls. If I answer they hang up. If I don't pick up they call and call, but no message. When I call back I get an Americal voice telling that the number is not in service....

Very concerning!

If anyone finds out who they are, please post an update.

There must be an authority this can be reported to????

Getting daily calls from (02) 8705 3279 and tried calling back to find out number is not in service.

This is really annoying and very frustrating.

Received call asking if I wanted a $20 Coles voucher and that I would qualify if I owned my own home and worked full time. When I asked how they got my number and what the company was called, the call was terminated. Highly suspicious.

I just received a call from thus number, although I'm curious to know whether everyone here is a real person or a bot. It seems odd that so many people happened to visit this website and bother commenting.

I got 1~2 calls from this number every few days. I answered it and it was hang up directly. So annoyed.

G
Gomez
Scam

I got a call from the number and when I answered 'they' hang up. So I googled the phone number and came to this thread. I've been receiving phone calls in the past three months, from very similar numbers using the same hang up protocol. I think its a 'scam' to verify if your mobile number is in use (for whatever 'ill'reason).

D

Received a few calls from (02) 8705 3279 on my mobile and they simply hung up.

If it looks like spam, walks like spam and quacks like spam, then...

I received 3 call from that number over the past two weeks. How can I block it? And how can I find if someone is hacking my mobile and my home network? All my computers and phones are Apple and all are on the same network.
